YOUNG MAN WITH HEART SCAR HAS OPTIONS FOR COVERING IT UP

Posted: August 19, 2014 at 1:30 a.m.

DEAR ABBY: You printed a letter from "Self-Conscious in Georgia" (May 15), a young man who is insecure about the scar from his heart surgery. I have had three surgeries for congenital defects, my first at 2 years old. Because many women's fashions expose the upper chest, I applied anti-scar products, which greatly reduced the size and color of my scars.
